https://solomedicalsupply.com/2024/08/07/7vks1ms To paraphrase a famous observation, cognitive bias in certain precincts of the blogosphere is one of those things you recognize when you see it. So for the hell of it, let’s go to this randomly chosen example at Bishop Hill, the blog of climate skeptic Andrew Montford, who can reliably be counted on to share any… Continue Reading…
https://inteligencialimite.org/2024/08/07/npa2qe7kl Several years ago, while wrestling with the climate skeptic/denier terminology, I queried a number of my colleagues on which term they used as shorthand. None of them used the “denier” term, but most were also uncomfortable with “skeptic” as a one-size-fits all label. My own thinking on this was captured by Time’s Bryan Walsh, who… Continue Reading…
https://polyploid.net/blog/?p=9domh7fnb And you thought some of the rabid in the climate concerned community had it in for Roger Pielke, Jr. Check out the threat Roger apparently poses to climate skeptics over in this Bishop Hill thread. Fortunately, there is a voice of sanity among the rabble. Ben Pile at first tries to reason with the fire-breathers, who… https://mandikaye.com/blog/vb202a80t8 Continue Reading…
https://foster2forever.com/2024/08/vzyar0wg0l.htmlEvery so often something I write shakes up the climate skeptic hive. They also start buzzing like mad, I have noticed, when you explain to them that their honeypot (the climate science cabal) is not really what excites them. Oh well, so much for transparency. In my latest post at the Yale Forum on Climate… https://www.clawscustomboxes.com/i7k4d6yrbin Continue Reading…
https://sugandhmalhotra.com/2024/08/07/d00nofus75Last summer, when Rick Perry mania was cresting and he was spouting nonsense about climate science and evolution, I said this: Serious, science-based climate skeptics have a chance to separate themselves from the foaming-at-the-mouth lunacy that defines their public image. Of course, in that same post, I also that the Texas Governor will likely saddle up the congealed… https://polyploid.net/blog/?p=55pqgkfsxxl Continue Reading…
https://merangue.com/fw7vdaq9jUPDATE: The Heartland Institute has responded. See bottom of this post for an excerpt. Somebody sent the Heartland Institute a wicked Valentine. It was probably meant for Joseph Bast, Heartland’s President and CEO. Based on my reading of the leaked documents, I’m thinking that a recently fired employee or someone still there is not feeling a lot of… https://aiohealthpro.com/1fk6l69htov Continue Reading…
https://www.clawscustomboxes.com/zuexy8fekAt the Yale Forum on Climate Change & the Media, I ask: Are climate skeptics less important and less influential than they “” and their counterparts in the climate-concerned community “” would have us believe?
https://mandikaye.com/blog/t6yz46nnx9zIn recent days, Richard Tol, an economist and “climate polymath,” has been battling Georgia Tech climate scientist Judith Curry. It started when Curry spotlighted some questionable research (two journal papers) on her blog, which contained statistical analysis that Tol initially called “sloppy.” He said the work was “published in minor journals, so that these papers… https://www.psicologialaboral.net/2024/08/07/gucmnoq7hy Continue Reading…
https://merangue.com/zann8t8rnishttps://eloquentgushing.com/v5im7xp0i Climate skeptics are all tingly over Matt Ridley’s recent speech (titled “Scientific Heresy”) to the Royal Scottish Academy. The reaction from Anthony Watts and Bishop Hill reminded me of these famous fanboys. The speech itself is worth reading and has numerous legitimate points ripe for debate, which I’ll take up in a future post. Meanwhile, I’ll ask if Ridley and climate… https://www.completerehabsolutions.com/blog/w7v43bwd Continue Reading…
https://sugandhmalhotra.com/2024/08/07/2ttqotiwElisabeth Kübler-Ross famously coined the five stages of grief: 1) Denial, 2) Anger, 3) Bargaining, 4) Depression, 5) Acceptance Anthony Watts appears to be stuck at stage 2. Oh sure, he’s still very much in denial over this, but make no mistake, he’s also fuming and furiously spinning. It is highly doubtful that any amount of peer review–when… https://inteligencialimite.org/2024/08/07/4dywfbjptb Continue Reading…
